They are certainly better when the week is over with the final prediction. They also have some access to non public data then, but yeah earlier in the week I can still have pretty good feelings for how its gonna go

that's the thing, doing early predictions based on the data of a single day out of seven, just for clout and clicks is embarrassing especially when the final ones end up being totally different... the way you saw IION coming from a mile away despite **** debuting higher and the other 3 vaults being pretty close to each other 

you're better off anyway, with the weekly twitter lunatics and the way they got way worse than they were before 

[pride4jc1222]

In all seriousness, all the 1989 (TV) vault tracks are mid. I seriously question your taste in music if you think any of them are good or even comparable to any of the original, iconic 1989 singles. Even the worst original single, Bad Blood, is way better than any vault track.

And its still at the bottom of 1989 for me.

So is IION? locked for #1 now? 
 

Whilst I’m happy for Taylor getting her 11th #1, I hope this doesn’t become a precedent for her to not film a MV for her singles - especially after both CS and IION went #1 without MVs. 

[Raphy23]

IION written in 2013.

CS released in 2019.

CS going #1 in 2023.

IION released in 2023.

IION smashing in 2024.

The patience of these songs.

It's honestly not any different from HITSDD posting early unit projections for the Billboard 200 on Saturday (which usually end up needing to be changed later). Not saying they're saints or immune to criticism either, but the same energy needs to be kept for both entities.

 

As for your other point, TOTC hasn't gotten worse at early predictions. In fact, on most stable weeks, their early predictions are usually very accurate (such as last week's). And like it or not stans do want to see predictions as early as possible so TOTC caters to that.

 

Also, ironically, their first 1989 TV prediction might end up becoming the most accurate of those posted so far (with the exception of IION ofc).

then stream her MVs on youtube.

The view of her own directed video has always been tragic. the video quality is still there cardigan/ bejeweled/ karma are excellent and others are serviceable but youtube is such a dead platform for USUK artists.

anyway she loves making videos so she will continue to do that for sure, it`s just she is a bit busy with the tour and romance. And i think she`s also want to manage her overexposed status, release too many MV will make her MV is not a big event like it used to.

oh no pride4jc1222 questioned our taste in music, we should all be ashamed and stop listening immediately

SuBOREban Legends flopping, as it deserves If there was any fairness in this world, AYHTDWS would take its spot in the top 10.
